Bridge Funding Award: Request for Proposals

American Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

The American Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists Foundation (AAOGF) is pleased to announce that it is currently seeking applications for bridge grants. These awards are made possible with generous support from the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). The AAOGF Bridge Funding Award is designed to stabilize research programs of promising physician scientists in obstetrics and gynecology who have not been successful in obtaining independent research funding or who have a temporary lapse in funding. This award will be for a one-year period from July 1, 2025 to June 30 2026.

Bridge funds are intended to enhance the likelihood of successful application for other funding opportunities by enabling ongoing research productivity and by ensuring that essential research personnel are not lost due to lapses in funding. Priority will be given to those programs with a strong likelihood that the investigator will be able to successfully apply for independent extramural funding by the end of the award. The proposed research should address important problems in obstetrics, gynecology, or women’s health. Basic and translational research projects are encouraged. Under-represented in medicine (URM) physician investigators are encouraged to apply. Applicants who have successfully completed a funded research training award (e.g. AAOGF/ABOG, AAOGF/MFM, RSDP, K, T or F Award, or other mentored training award) are encouraged to apply. Each award will be for up to $75,000 for one year. No indirect costs are allowed.

Deadline: April 1, 2025

Submissions by underrepresented groups are encouraged. Investigators who currently have an R award for the period of3 funding are not eligible. Submission of critiques of recent funding applications for the project must be provided with the application.
